Best Concerts of the Year
 

besides Fleetwood Mac, of course.

I saw Van Halen last night for the first time ever. They were GREAT! All sounded & looked good. All had solos. Eddie's was last. Can he play the guitar or what? The energy & enthusiasm that was in that concert was AWESOME! As one of the DJs on my local radio station put it, it wasn't a concert, it was an event. A must see!

Everyone else been to a good show this year?

My picks..
Boston
REO Speedwagon
Madonna
Van Halen
Lynard Skynard

Shania Twain, heh and she better be as good Tuesday, as she was in December. She was the only other person besides FM that I saw. Whoohoo for Shania!

Concerts
 

I can't think of much then can beat Madonna, it was as good as FM, just very, very, different. :thumbsup:

How sad, I haven't seen one concert this year, not even FM since my show has been postponed and no word yet on show date :(

I'm still considering going to Simon & Garfunkel, but I'm not sure I can justify the expense for a non-Mac concert. My parents went and said it was great.

Suzanne Vega! :nod:

I'm going to see Sheryl Crow in 2 days! Apart from a theatre trip to see Lorna Luft in August that's about it for me this year!

Jake, if you are at all a Simon & Garfunkel fan (and I know you are), it's definitely worth going to see them! I'm on a limited budget, but even I sprang for those tickets. I got nosebleed, the cheapest seats in the house, and I was not disappointed--they were great (Simon and Garfunkel, not the seats)--gotta love those harmonies!

Patti

Thanks. They're playing here & Austin early in July, so maybe...

- Jake

A friend that I work with has an extra ticket to Eric Clapton on Saturday...I just might go :D

No Doubt - Love that girl's charisma.
Amber

Blondie, deffinitely. Debbie Harry's still got it :D. They kicked ass.

Omigod you saw blondie? When? Where?

Rock & Soul Revue
 

Sorry, I've got to bring this thread up again b/c I went to another great concert. They're calling it the Rock & Soul Revue. Starts out with the Average White Band (AWB), Michael McDonald (from the Doobie Brothers) & then Daryl Hall & John Oates. I saw them in Virginia Beach while on vacation on July 3rd. It was an excellent show. And there were fireworks afterwood. :blob1:
